The house next door had been empty for almost three years before Alice moved in. Nobody knew who had sold it to her, and nobody seemed to know where she had come from. The house stood at number seventeen, at the far end of our quiet street, with its faded gray walls, overgrown garden, and windows that always seemed darker than the rest of the neighborhood.
